Not sure what the relevance of "world city" is in this discussion, unless you like hanging out with traders and lawyers.

Like the famous Toronto beaches and weather? Open your eyes, man. San Diego has a hispanic underclass, lacks a real mass transit system, and most importantly (and in common with all US cities) does not have universal health care. But I am a professional with a car and a health care plan and a hispanic cleaning lady. That means that I have easier access to transportation than some slob in Zurich or Amsterdam with a trolley pass, and far better access to health care than someone in Alberta (where there is a real health care crisis which, somehow, doesn't register on the Mercer index since its still "universal").

I'm Canadian and my wife is Dutch. But we both came to San Diego because it is awesome. Come visit and I'll buy you a beer.

Best military= Russia or China
Best cops = are you serious? special forces are the best in Russia
Best athlets= no, pay attention to the other posts
Best women= no, you have spolied women whom are either stupid and stuck up or fat.

American women all look exactly the same nowadays. American women offer absolutely no diversity, so we import them

What cash? Your nation's federal debt is over $9 trillion.
As for Toronto, the city has reached its carrying capacity.

Almost 10 trillion by today. That's abot 70 percent of the enitre American economy. That's what you get for being greedy and focusing more on celebrities than education.

1. Toronto has some of the top schools and universities in the world, and leads all American cities in education, both mental and physical.
2. It is one of the safest cities on earth, and the safest metropolitan city in North America.
3. It is the most multicultural city in the world.
4. It has some of the best museums, art galleries and entertainment in the world.
5. It has a distinct culture, not found anywhere else, and deep tradition.
6. Citizens in Toronto have a higher quality of life then any city in America.
In conclusion, there is more to a city then the weather. Toronto is better then San Diego in every category. However comparing the two is wrong, because they are much different. If you want a city because of the views, and weather, go to Vancouver. Another great city.

everyone please now go away. America dominates the military world, as well as provides the world with the most useful modern day inventions in the past 200 years. Other regions just take american ideas and make innovations *cough* Asia *cough*
I don't think you will find someone who hates fellow Americans more than me, but this logic is infallible.
Every country likes to pretend America is not #1, but what other country has come up with more important inventions in the recent times. I didn't even include the military advances because those do not really effect everyday life. Just the recent Cervical cancer vaccine saves so many lives and is just a huge advancement. But of course, it is an American invention so no one talks about how huge it is.
